Working with Favorites

 

 

 

Favorites are addresses in URL format that refer to resources accessed using common web protocols such as HTTP, HTTPS, and FTP.

 

Favorites can be used to embed contain from FTP and Web servers directly into pasGuard.  Typical examples include folders on FTP servers that contain frequently accessed files or custom reports on web servers that augment the built-in reporting views already included in pasGuard.

 

Creating Favorites

 

To create a new favorite, select and then right-click the Favorites node in the tree view navigation pane and choose Add New Favorite from the context menu.  At a minimum you need to supply a well-formed URL consisting of a protocol and address to create a favorite.  Creating a favorite automatically launches the favorite editor for further customization.
